Politics SMS / Text Messages

The flood of money
that gushes into politics
today is a pollution of democracy.

Politics is the gentle art
of getting votes from the poor
and campaign funds from the rich,
by promising to protect each from the other.

Good leaders are like baseball umpires;
they go practically unnoticed
when doing their jobs right.

A good leader is a person
who takes a little more than
his share of the blame
and
a little less than his share of the credit.

Government is like a baby.
An alimentary canal with
a big appetite at one end
and no sense of responsibility at the other.

The more you read and
observe about this Politics thing,
you got to admit that each party
is worse than the other.

The one that”s out always looks the best.

Those who are too smart
to engage in politics
are punished by being governed
by those who are dumber.

Mankind will never see an end of trouble until…
lovers of wisdom come to hold political power,
or the holders of power…
become lovers of wisdom.
